Kilometre-scale Jovian moon characterized for a potential JUICE flyby

Juan Luis Rizos, Jose Maria Gomez-Limon, Yucel Kilic +51

Jupiter's irregular satellites are thought to be relics of early Solar System planetesimals. However, their small sizes, large distances from Earth and close angular proximity to J…

Constraints on the structure and seasonal variations of Triton's atmosphere from the 5 October 2017 stellar occultation and previous observations

J. Marques Oliveira, B. Sicardy, A. R. Gomes-Júnior +234

A stellar occultation by Neptune's main satellite, Triton, was observed on 5 October 2017 from Europe, North Africa, and the USA. We derived 90 light curves from this event, 42 of…
